Stamping Momma!

You may not be aware, but in addition to being Lily's Mommy and loving to learn how to cook, and loving to garden. I also make cards with rubber stamps.

I have had my work printed in books, published in several magazines and on websites and, appeared on TV on the DIY show "Craft Lab"
I also wrote a book called "Stamp A Card"
And, in 2007 I was on the Tim Holtz Design Team for Ranger Ink. That was an amazing experience!
While I LOVE stamping, for a long time my family took most of my attention. Lately, I have been creating again. 

Here are some of my more recent cards. (Most given away to friends and family)

Seed packets that I made for my friend's wedding.

I stamped these seed packets for the wedding of my friends, Carolyn and John.

This went along with a wedding present.

Sometimes I make several sample tags and keep them in my idea journal till I decide on a final design.

One of my favorite things I made in 2013
